Hi All!
I need to shoot video of ZUMBA dancing. This is a very fast dancing with fast movements.
I tried shooting 1080-25P 100mbps (I'm in a PAL zone), 180d, but for some reason the dancer movements where too blurry - It was hard to "understand" what he was doing..

How do you guys think I should shoot? 25P or 50P? maybe faster shutter speed and not going by the "golden role" of 180d?
Here are some reference videos of well shot ZUMBA: https://www.youtube.com/user/ZumbaFrance

Thanks!
 
I'd be trying 50 or even 100 if you have sufficient light, the motion blur associated with 25 fps might be fine for a slow waltz but it sounds like it's not cutting it for your zumba
 
High frame rates will be good. But to remove motion blur you might consider going down to a 45° shutter angle.
